Fertile women are not allowed to use (or even touch) finasteride (Propecia) for fear of the severe birth defects it causes. This is probably a blessing in disguise, as the side-effects (loss of libido, lip swelling, breast engorgement, birth defects) are not pleasant. Finasteride is completely ineffective in reversing hair loss for postmenopausal women. Tell your men friends a dose of 0.2 mg (one-fifth the normal dose) works just as well, costs less ($10 a month instead of $50), and is gentler on the liver.There is also a treatment called Finasteride that is clinically proven to stop thinning hair but only works for men. Depending on the exact type of hair loss some of these treatments may have to be used continuously to prevent hair loss reoccurring.Disguising Thinning HairWhile there are many effective treatments available to stop thinning hair it can take many months before results are noticed. During this period there are many products and techniques that may be used to make the existing hair look thicker and healthier. Hair loss conditioners can thicken the hair shafts by as much as 300% and blow drying hair can also be used to make thinning hair look substantially thicker. Certain hair styles are also better suited to thinning hair, in general shorter hair is better, growing hair longer to cover up thinning hair is not recommended.
